Hi Shel!
Many thanks for such a nice mail.
I really liked your mail. In fact, many experienced photographers with
whom I interacted told me exactly the same thing. Most of the time, I use
metered manul mode in my camera but while making candid street
photographs, I am forced to switch to aperture priority mode and let the
camera take care of the exposure. Of course, I don't learn anything about
exposure while making those photographs. (This is not a good quality
being a photographer.) On the other hand, I concentrate only on
the composition to catch the right moment. I think that I don't have the
sense of understanding light and therefore I couldn't perform well, even
in metered manual mode for candids. But I readily agree with you about the
control of exposure in a photograph provided that the photographer has
feel for light.
With kind regards,
Ayash K.
